Dr. Julita Medina Cantillo is a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation at the Hospital Sant Joan de Deu.
Take part in this three-minute video to explain clearly the most basic notions about the placement of school bags on the back, in order to avoid present and future injuries.
He tells us that these pains are usually caused by small contractures, and that adults who have back pain have a history of these pains in their childhood. From there the importance of prevention.
One of the most frequent causes in hospital and primary care is back pain; and one of the most important (and preventable) causes of these, is an inadequate distribution of the weight in the backpack, or a incorrect placement of it.
I like it because it also extensively reviews what the shape of the backpack should be, to help avoid problem
I recommend you see it, talk about that weight that must not exceed 10 percent of the child's weight (at most 15%), and gives a series of recommendations equal to those we promptly bring you by these dates in Peques and More ... only that explained in a very short time, and also easy to understand and apply.
I hope it serves you.
